Deceuninck North America of Monroe, Ohio, a designer and manufacturer of high-quality systems for windows, doors, and outdoor living, recently upgraded and expanded its lamination capability with the addition of state-of-the-art equipment. The firm, a division of the Belgium-based Deceuninck Group, added three PVC lineal lamination lines to meet consumer demand for a wider variety of color customization options.

PVC lamination involves the covering of PVC lineals with a high-performance laminate that adds wood grains and colors, enhancing the look and quality of window framing in commercial and residential buildings.

"Deceuninck's addition of three new lamination lines reflects our commitment to meeting this demand for more customized color solutions that conform to design specifications and help businesses and homeowners give their space a signature look. This expansion allows us to continue to provide the high level of service that our customers expect."
